Individual Rhythm / Sight Singing Quizes

Chord Progressions

Harmony is one big way artists and composers provide familiarity in music....

The reason some notes sound good together is because we are familiar with the sound .. WE are used to it and we are comfortable with how it sounds

Think of how many Major/Minor Chords the average person has heard over the course of their lifetime(Every song you or I have ever heard contains these - wit the exception of song with non functional harmony)

When we hear major and minor chords in the song, this is not the first time we are hearing that chord. we have heard it many times before!

Therefore we are already familiar with the song ( even if it is a small aspect! )

One Important Device in Music for creating Familiarity is theChord Progression​
